Japan's entry steps
Bringing your pet to Japan, in order
These steps come from Japan's Animal Quarantine Service. Do them in this order.
Microchip
Your pet gets a microchip first.
Two anti-rabies shots
At least two anti-rabies shots, after the microchip.
Blood titer test
The result must be 0.5 IU/ml or higher. We send the sample to RIAS in Japan.
Wait 180 days
Your pet can arrive in Japan no earlier than 180 days after the blood sample date.
Tell Japan before you fly. Notify the port of entry at least 40 days before your pet arrives.
The whole process takes at least 6 months, so the earlier you start, the better. Message us your travel date, and we'll help you plan.
Traveling within the Philippines?
